Rupert Murdoch's divorce

A Manhattan divorce judge has torn up the prenup signed by Murdoch's third wife Wendi Deng after agreeing with her lawyers that it was the meanest, most tight-fisted penny-pinching marriage contract he'd ever seen.

'In addition I propose to give your wife the sum of one million dollars per week,' the judge told Murdoch.

'Thank you, most generous, Your Honor,' Rupert Murdoch replied with a chuckle, 'I'll try to chuck her a few bucks now and then myself.'
